Default Re: Explain to me like a child :

Like a child? Ohhhkayy

You see that little "x" you're asking about? That is often used as a symbol for multiplication.

So when you see 10x, this means "ten times"

Bonuses have raked-hands requirements in ring games only (at most sites, there are some exceptions).

There is also usually a threshold for what makes a "qualifying" raked hand.

Most sites only require that you be dealt into the hand. A few sites require that you contribute to the pot.

In the example of "ten times," to clear $1 in bonus money, you must play ten qualifying hands that are raked.

Leveraging the above information, you should be able to read the T&C's of any bonus and site rules and figure the rest out for yourself.

Don't come back all shocked that hands raked $0.05 aren't counting on some sites. Read the T&C's and enjoy.
